/tg/ Thread Archive

Welcome to the /tg/ archive. Note: Please DO NOT SCRAPE THE ARCHIVES as my bandwidth is finite.

2015-01-15: I noticed there was a notice here that was out of date by like four years. Here's a new notice. NOTICE ME SEMPAI~. Also if something goes wrong with the archives, fastest contact is via irc.thisisnotatrueending.com.

2015-02-04: Due to overwhelming size, .pdf files are no longer supported.

Evil overlords, necromancers, and all-around jerks gather around to talk about all those pesky paladins, raising skeletons, and unhealthy relations with swords. Also includes some dispute with the Fighters Guild over who booked the convention hall, ending in a football game.

Hey, wait a moment. I know you want to get in out of the rain, but I've been wondering. We've worked together to kill those kobolds for the past half-season, and we're getting our coin today, but we never really just... talked. I realised this morning that I don't really know anything about you, and you don't know anything about me, and I was merely wondering what you did before you became an adventurer...

OP decides to do Call of Cthulhu in space, mixing HP Lovecraft with Isaac Asimov. The result involves rockets crashing into Great Old Ones, robot cultists plotting to enslave humanity and posthumans turning into Yog-Sothoth.

The story of Carne, a big hulking machine full of the secret knowledge of a dead nation, after he wakes up from a Rip-Van-Winkle-like nap.
You awaken. You are in a forest. Vines and vegetation cover your body of cold metal and indestructible crystal.
"It is day. The birds are chirping. You can hear animals nearby. Some are eating, some stalking others to eat."

Step 1) Post a large and pretty PDF with Touhou selling point. Step 2) Mathfags, rollfags, roleplayers, Touhoufags converge. Step 3) Critiques and RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEG. But you have to admit... It's a fairly well done PDF. Let this be a lesson for all those ambitious homebrew makers: Yo shit gonna be picked.

It was just an ordinary rollantrollan thread with some funny randomly-generated mage class titles. Then some cunt started conjuring castles, some other guy was destroying the castles, mages were fucking with one another, one omnicidal asshole was messing with time travel, and suddenly it bloomed into a BATTLE FOR THE MULTIVERSE.

The OP and his friend are interested in getting into D&D, but a fateful demonstration of a session makes the OP think twice about becoming a D&D player. Will he give in and take his first steps as a roleplayer, or will he resist and hesitate?

The Mighty Lord Inglip has blessed us with his divine texts, and using these great scraps of knowledge we will shape the new world.
-The cultists of Lord Inglip gather for a thread full of captcha derived intelligence, imagination and at times downright insanity.

Engineering student joins his TA's RPG. /tg/ listens as he goes back to 1231 Europe, learns of John Prester's Land, and revels in a smart, story-based world in which the PCs invent their way to glory. But can OP & pals prep for the Mongol invasions?

OP posts the story of his campaign so far, in which he serves as the faithful beyond death of a paladin-turned-necromancer king.
More stories are posted, including a repentant mercenary turned paladin, and one of love blooming on the lists.

OP suspects that every thread on /tg/ is one poster with multiple personality disorder. Anons then proceed to namefag as an entire rogue's gallery of various "subpshyches" and personality entities, representing the many facets of human emotion and the mind, all led by the Manager (the brain) who directs Hardware (the body).

Homebrew Nation Building Game played every week on Skype as I writefag weekly updates for /tg/. This week our Professor takes us through the second turbulent year of the Proto-Age, where the thunder of war increases and violence accelerates with the rapid expansion of the new city-states.

The Captain and his crew continue their hunt for the criminal Jeremiah Crowe on the explosive island of Failsafe. Disguises are donned, teeth are punched in, pirates are wrestled, and okama are appeased.

Anon tells us of his amazing game where he and his fellows are mages helping Glorious India throw off the yoke of the British Empire in the middle of the Great War, and we discuss how best for India to liberate itself

The guild assemble to talk about missing presents, and the discussion quickly devolves on the new guest and generic considerations on the drow race. However, the arrival of Jheska puts the guild in danger coming from an unexpected source...

Anon asks why humans usually have starting bonuses in CHA based stats, /tg/ discusses if and why humans (and other races) have or don't have starting bonuses in their game settings and if they do which are used and why.

About the Archive

This is my very simple attempt to come up with an archival program. Enter the thread number (/tg/ only) and a brief title and one-sentence description and hit Go!; it'll archive a copy of the page for future lulz. Archived threads are checked every two hours for updates until the thread 404s. (I never thought threads would last over two days but 1614919 proved me very wrong.) To refresh an existing archived thread, simply attempt to add it again, and it will be immediately refreshed.

Please do not navigate away from this page once you hit Go!; depending on the number of images, it may take a minute or more to complete. If you do navigate away, the update script should catch anything you miss, but the thread may display incorrectly or with 4chan.org hotlinking images until it is repaired.

Mods, if this script seems too spammy, I can up the checking interval, lower the time limit, or remove this altogether. Ideally, it should mean a simple 12 pageloads for a day per new thread, and it does not re-download images, so the load should be negligible.
